10.6 Partition Size

The Partition Size option allows you to change the size of the Hard Drive partitions.

Warning: When you alter the partition size, all previous data or video stored on the hard drive will be lost, and you will only be able to load media with less than the specified partition size capacity.

To change the hard drive partition size, use the Up or Down button to navigate to the 6. Partition Size menu:

Hard Drive Setup 6. Partition Size

Press the OK button to enter the Partition Size menu.

Press the Up or Down button to select the desired partition size. Press the OK button to select the Partition Size.

The Hard Drive is divided into a number of equal-sized partitions. Each partition holds ONE and ONLY ONE master disc’s content regardless of the size of your master disc.

The options for partition size are:

¾Auto

¾CD: 1 GB

¾DVD Single Layer: 5 GB

¾DVD Dual/Double Layer: 9 GB

The number of partitions is determined by dividing your Hard Drive's total capacity by the selected media size: 1 GB for CD format, 5 GB for DVD Single Layer format, or 9 GB for DVD Dual Layer format, and then subtracting one partition for system use. For example, if you have a 160 GB Hard Drive, you can calculate the number of Single Layer format partitions by: 160 / 5 = 32. Since one partition is reserved for system use, you will have 31 partitions available for use.

Or you can calculate the number of Dual Layer format partitions using the formula: 160 / 9 = 17.77. Since you cannot use an incomplete partition, there will be a total of 17 partitions available for a 160 GB Hard Drive. Since one partition is reserved for system use; there will be 16 partitions available for use.

The Auto option sets the partition to the largest size that the installed CD/ DVD writers can accommodate.

If you have a 16x speed or higher autoloader with DVD Dual Layer capabilities, the hard drive partitions are set at a size of 9 GB each under the Auto option to accommodate DVD Dual Layer format. If you require more partitions and do not plan on copying DVD Dual Layer media, you can change the hard drive partition size to CD (1 GB) or DVD (5 GB).
